Me & my family will be forever thankful that we chose Udens as the company to look after our mum. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to guide us through such a heartbreaking & difficult time. Your professionalism, kindness & genuine care made a real difference to us as a family and we will always remember that. Bina & Danny have been amazing from start to finish & Jack and team who looked after us on the day. Thank you again for the bottom of our hearts ❤️

At the point that my mother passed away, Udens were my first and immediate choice for her funeral. From the minute I called them I felt supported. Their service is kind, efficient and very professional. I chose to have the full service at my late mother's home in its entirety (she was not a fan of the crematorium!) and the team at Udens supported me fully with the arrangements. I wanted to do it 'my way' and they went out of their way to help me achieve that. It was also very comforting for me to see a familiar face in Gareth, who had also been at my fathers funeral a few years prior; that continuity for me was very important. I had a theme for my mothers funeral which was floral brights, and I loved how I was able to ask the Udens team to wear one of their coloured tie collections - I chose yellow. What differentiates team Uden for me is the absolute professionalism, courtesy and quiet effectiveness of what they do. A loss is a difficult time, but the presence of team Uden most definitely brought a very positive and steadfast level of support. Their West Wickham offices are beautifully appointed (and modern) - but they not only feel welcoming, but they also imbue a level of respect, peacefulness and calm; they are a really positive high street presence for West Wickham. Although this is a belated review, five star thanks to the whole team. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Our family cannot thank Kate and Andrew and their wonderful team enough for the respect, kindness and support that they showed to us all, and each of us as individuals, at this most difficult time. The respectful way the team treated my beloved dad during his stay at the funeral chapel and on his way to the cemetery was above and beyond expectations. The service was exemplary from beginning to end . Thank you at this difficult time . We felt very looked after.

Uden’s service was excellent. Their approach was helpful and compassionate. They covered all the details and all the staff at the office and on the day were very kind. Their help was much appreciated by all the family.

I couldn’t recommend Udens more. My dad’s funeral was beautiful. The gentlemen were turned out immaculately and were professional to a T.I was traveling alone on the drive there and was so well looked after. I was made to feel at ease with such warmth.I really felt like the gentlemen made such an effort to be kind, professional and caring the whole way through.Nigel was amazing! He really helped me out as I was arranging the funeral from some way away with a young baby with me all the time. He was understanding and helped me so much. He was very patient and concentrate.I couldn’t recommend anyone else for your family apart from Udens. They really went above and beyond.Thank you for everything gentlemen. I meant ever so much.

From start to finish, Nigel in Biggin Hill was utterly professional and respectful. The day of the funeral went without fault and the drivers and bearers were exceptional. Cannot recommend Udens enough.

On losing my dear husband, my son and I visited Uden and Sons and met Adam. He explained everything we needed to know in a most calm and friendly manner. We were so impressed we decided then and there Udens would be our choiceA funeral isn’t just the day itself but the dark days leading up to it. During this time Udens were happy to deal with any questions and the calm respectful conversations reinforced the choice we had madeThe day itself was as we expected…calm, respectful and no hiccups at all.Udens must rate highly among Funeral Directors.

From the moment we approached Andrew at the Orpington branch nothing was too much trouble. He listened to what we wanted, which was not traditional and he was happy to accommodate all our wishes.The two gentlemen who came to the house to collect dad after he died were so respectful, patient and kind and explained at every stage what they were doing.We were kept informed throughout the process.Sarah visited us at home to finalise all the arrangements, and we found her to be very caring and empathetic.The team that were at the service offered support and advice as family members carried the coffin in to the church. They were discrete and professional, but also emotionally responsive.They are also immaculately turned out.We would also mention that they have been very responsive to any needs or queries we have had.We are happy to recommend them to take care of your loved ones.

FAQs

What should I do when a death occurs in Bromley?

If the death is expected and occurs at home:

Contact the deceased’s doctor and inform them of the death
Once the doctor has given permission to move the deceased, you may contact us and we will aim to be with you within 1-2 hours, to move the person who has died into our care
The doctor will issue the Medical Certificate of Cause of Death to the family representative for registration purposes

If the death occurs at a Nursing Home:

If a resident dies in a nursing home the GP (or qualified nurse on duty) can verify death
The GP will issue a medical certificate for the family to collect which will allow them to register
Most nursing homes will record the resident’s funeral wishes on their care plan. This will specify the chosen Funeral Director and whether the deceased wanted a cremation or a burial.
Once called, we will remove the deceased into our care

If the death occurs in Hospital:

If death occurs at the hospital, then the Doctors and Nurses will liaise with the hospital Bereavement Office, who will arrange all the appropriate paperwork on your behalf.

In cases of sudden and unexpected death:

If a death is unexpected then dial 999 and request an ambulance and police immediately, explaining the circumstances. In the event of an unexpected death occurring, then a coroner may become involved and may order a post-mortem to be carried out to establish an accurate cause of death. The coroner’s officer will keep you informed should this be the case and will liaise with us.

Where is my loved one taken after they die?

In cases where the Coroner is required to investigate the death, the deceased will be taken to a hospital or mortuary until a post-mortem examination is completed. If the death is expected, the funeral director will collect the deceased from the place of death and transport them to the appropriate chapel of rest, pending the arrangement of the funeral. Many large companies have central mortuaries or “hubs” where they store the deceased.

Here at W. Uden & Sons, each of our funeral homes are equipped with their own chapel of rest and have fully hygienic facilities for the care of your loved one. The only exception to this is our Dulwich branch, which shares these facilities with our branch at Camberwell.

Can I arrange a funeral before I register the death?

Yes, once the deceased’s death has been certified, call your local branch and our experienced staff will guide you through the process of arranging the funeral. The only exception is when the Coroner has indicated that he intends to hold a full inquest into the circumstances surrounded the death.
